ANTI-RAGGING                

Our campus is a place to find valuable friendship and to cherish unforgettable moments. We, here at NPR Polytechnic College strongly condemn any kind of ragging practices. Our students welcome the freshers with flowers and advices and they do not believe in violence or unhealthy practices. Our faculty members impart good values with education and that is what set NPR apart.
